THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, SATURDAY, MARCH 30, 1985 Giants, Cardinals Figured to Battle for National League Pennant CUBS AND PIRATES GIVEN ‘DARKHORSE? | RATINGS BY SCRIBE Braves Make Sacrifice in Inter- ests of Gate Receipts by Playing Ruth NEW YORKERS LOOK BEST Strength of ‘Big Four’ Pitching Combination Seen as De- ciding Factor By ALAN GOULD New Orleans, March 30.—(?)—Rid- ing high, wide and handsome after capturing three of the last four world series, the National League is all steamed up for one of the gaudiest seasons in its 60-odd years of exist- ence. With Babe Ruth in the circuit for the first time as an extra-special added attraction at the box office, even though the Babe's a trifle shop- ‘worn, and the Cincinnati Reds are all set to introduce night baseball as a fresh stimulant to the cash custom- ers, there's an unprecedented display of showmanship by baseball's erst- while and conservative “old guard.” The twin objectives of better “gate” attractions and financial recovery for the league, most of the merfibers of which have been deeply “in the red” for the duration of the depression, would be more quickly attained by & rowdy, free-for-all pennant race. Sees Two Club Race Candor, however, compels the as- sertion that it looks distinctly like: another two-club race. To be more specific, it looks from this observa- tion post as though the New York Giants, despite the embarrassment of their collapse in the last month of the 1934 season, have recuperated suffi- ciently to turn the tables on the St.| Louis Cardinals. At least six and perhaps seven clubs, if the Phillies are included. will be anything put a push-over this season. The rookie Reds of Cincinnati, still in the embryonic Stage of development, alone can be counted definitely cut of the picture. ‘It's a tossup between the Chicago Cubs and Pittsburgh Pirates for third place. Giants Look Best ‘The Giants look best this spring for several reasons. They beat them- selves last September, blowing a seven-game lead that would have been impossible for the Cardinals to ‘wipe out except for the utter collapse of the New York club. No one can underestimate the all- ground strength and drive of this swash-buckling St. Louis crew. In the final analysis, however, it gets down to a question of what Manager Frisch is going to use for winning pitchers after he shoots the Dean boys at the opposition. The Giants can keep blasting away with Carl Hubbell, Hal Schumacher, Fred; Fitzsimmons and Roy Parmelee—a/ “big four” that looks as good as new this spring. None of the remaining clubs can be rated as pennant factors although one of them, Bill McKechnie's Boston Braves, finished fourth last year, shead of the Pirates, and figures to get the maximum out of all available resources this year. The Braves, however, have made the supreme sac- rifice in the interests of bigger gate receipts by installing Ruth in the out- field.

Why should I meet him first when I'm already under contract to fight Baer?” Schmeling is looking forward eag- erly to his second match with Baer. “Before my match with Baer,” the former champion added, “I expect to meet Paulino Uzcudun in June, prob- ably in Germany.
